Behind the scenes

Abandon was hired not only to produce the commercial spots but to also partner with Carilion in the development process. Working under the guidance of Carilion’s in-house creative and marketing departments, Abandon focused on an in-depth analysis of Carilion’s needs and goals. A series of concepts were drafted and pitched, then narrowed down to a handful of final contenders. Two concepts were joined to create a down-home parallel, using a farmer, along with an epic score, and an original poem.
